What the...

Okay so the last posting was lacking somewhat as far as accuracy of spelling goes. That's what co's are for!

More 'words' heard today: Boeing offered Air NZ a BIG deal on Q300, via fellow military contract partner and one time division DeHavilland/Bombardier. It was to 'help' ANZ make the right decision re long haul/medium haul acft.

Story went that once the 'Bus's can be disposed of, 6 or 7 to SJ and the rest flicked off o/seas to airlines screaming out for them - Jetstar?? - Boeing gets a phone call and next thing we're reading a headline about the acquistion of a whole bunch of 737NG's!

Hopefully or the young'uns in the crew will only have the A320 to look forward to!
